Novel catalytic-ceramic-filler (CCF) prepared from solid waste (scrap iron) and clay.
Catalytic micro-electrolysis (CME) with CCF used as monensin wastewater pretreatment.
About 98.44% of monensin residue and 37.07% of COD were removed by the CME reactor.
The UASB efficiency (methane yield and COD removal) improved by the CME pretreatment.
The coupled CME-UASB-AS system removed about 98% of COD and 95% of chroma.
